On May 10 BOF was heard saying:
<snip>
->So the installation time makes a nice lunch break ...
*** He, he, you are cheating, that is what one of the splash screens
during the install said too... ;-)
I just installed it on my Thinkpad and was glad to notice it supports the
A22e much better than the 7.0 to 7.2 versions. It seems to have been due
to a problem with the usb port of the A22e.
I will not bother you here with the details of the last two weeks of
blood, sweat and tears while trying to get Linux on the A22e and being
forced to use Mandrake 8.1 (8.2 is definite garbage) but I might on the
general list just so there is a record.
BTW, do not go for lunch right away after the install starts, you might
miss some very interesting slides about RH history: It seems the founder
was wearing a red baseball hat at the University he was a student at while
helping the users out with their IT problems so everybody was asking for
the guy with the... RED HAT! ;-)
Cheers,
Zoran.
